Emerging Artists Complete Their High School Education at Co-Op

June 15, 2023 by Chris Randall Leave a Comment

The Shubert Theater buzzed with excitement and electrifying enthusiasm yesterday as one hundred twenty seniors graduated from Cooperative Arts and Humanities High School.

Proud parents, teachers, and friends looked on, their hearts filled with admiration for the remarkable talents and accomplishments of these graduating students. They knew that this moment marked not only the end of a chapter but the beginning of an exciting journey into the wider world—a world eager to witness the impact of these extraordinary young artists and scholars.

As the photography at teacher Co-Op, I have the firsthand privilege of witnessing the remarkable talent and unwavering dedication of the students there. It really is a special place.

Here are some highlights of the ceremony. I put a link to the expanded album with all 425 photos at the bottom of this post.
